20-Game Hitting Streak for Mahoney
Sunday, July 19th , 2026
The Wilmington Blue Rocks may have proven to be mere mortals as they lost, 4-3, to the Jersey Shore BlueClaws, but Mike Mahoney continued to hit like a god.
The center fielder collected 1 hit in 4 at-bats in the loss and extended his hitting streak to 20 games.
"Mahoney is playing great and is on fire right now," Blue Rocks manager Tommy Osborne said. "Hopefully his play can spark the rest of our team and help us pick up some wins."
Mahoney was apparently not happy with the game and when pressed by reporters in the locker room only said "nothing else matters but the loss." Mike Mahoney grounded out in the 1st, doubled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, flied out in the 7th, walked in the 9th, walked in the 11th and struck out in the 12th.
So far this season, Mahoney has recorded a .336 batting average with 86 hits, 6 home runs, 21 RBIs, 36 runs scored and a .400 OBP.
